Girl Number 9 - Cult

1971 · 26-10-2009, 15:02

I'm sure some of you have heard about it, it starts this friday.

http://www.canyousaveher.com/home.html

Vincent Boylan (Joe Absolom) has just been arrested, suspected of being the man behind the brutal murder of seven girls, but the team only have a limited time to get a confession out of him. If they can't make him talk, he could slip through their fingers.

Detective Matheson (Gareth David-Lloyd), who led the investigation, is sent in to try and get some answers. But things soon take a horrifying turn for the worse, as Matheson and his boss Lyndon (Tracy-Ann Oberman) are about to find out that all is not as it seems.

Story by Dan Turner & James Moran.

Written by James Moran

Starring Gareth David-Lloyd (Torchwood), Joe Absolom (Doc Martin, Personal Affairs) and Tracy-Ann Oberman (Doctor Who, Eastenders).

Produced by Martin Baker & Pete Coogan

Episodes 1-3 directed by Dan Turner. Episodes 4-6 directed by James Moran

Girl Number 9 was filmed at Elstree Film Studios.

Looks good. What channel is it on?

phil solo · 26-10-2009, 19:33

It's Wwweb only, the OP thoughtfully provided a link for those interested

carl.waring · 26-10-2009, 22:11

An interesting idea. Only problem is that I don't have a PC hooked up to my TV

Good article here....

You don't have to have your PC hooked to the TV. Just watch it online. It is going to be available to buy or download after it has all been aired. Each episode is at 9pm and repeated for about month. It only lasts five minutes and there are six episodes, making half an hour in all.

We have been following this on Twitter for about a month. It is advisable to try and follow the tweets about it to get the flavour.

Well yes, I know that. Didn't actually realise they were so short. I thought this was another "Sanctuary"; ie a full TV show

Gill P · 29-10-2009, 22:18

Apparently there is a cliffhanger at the end of every episode (presumably not the last one!)

Here is the link to the thread in the Torchwood forum. Girl Number 9

Gill P · 30-10-2009, 08:39

Only a few hours to go. It seems that this is being streamed worldwide and there has been interest from as far afield as Australia, Canada and the US.

Tumpy · 30-10-2009, 20:22

Just thought I'd flag this up as only 40 mins to go until first episode

Gill P · 30-10-2009, 20:48

Apparently the password thing will disappear at 9pm. They are certainly cranking up the excitement.

Tumpy · 30-10-2009, 20:58

Knew you'd be waiting Gill - only 2 mins now!

1971 · 30-10-2009, 21:08

wow, made my pulse beat anyway!

Tumpy · 30-10-2009, 21:15

Good start and I've read no spoilers so this is it for me. So good to see Gareth again and hear those Welsh vowels.

Gill P · 30-10-2009, 21:17

Not quite so Welsh as in Torchwood though. Great start - can't wait till Monday. There is a trailer on tomorrow for Episode 2.

towers · 30-10-2009, 21:24

Interesting start.

I can't form a real opinion at this stage though, obviously.

Gill P · 31-10-2009, 22:35

Have you seen the trailer on the website?

No, I don't want to be spoiled for an episode that's only going to last 4-5 minutes.

I'm glad the remaining episodes are going to be on every night next week because you can stay in-the-flow that way.

Gill P · 01-11-2009, 10:01

It doesn't really tell you much as it is only short.

Gill P · 02-11-2009, 11:17

I am looking forward to seeing the next episode of GN9. I only wish it had been made as a proper TV series.

There's a small chance that could happen if a major tv producer takes an interest. One of the 'extras' on GN9 told local reporters that this on-line drama could be used as a pilot if it were good enough.

Gill P · 02-11-2009, 16:52

Brilliant - thanks!

Tumpy · 02-11-2009, 18:19

We can but hope Gill. I wish it wasn't on at 9. Having real trouble as there are 6 things I want to watch or record on then and that must be a record. Still more GDL to look forward to - yay.
